Posted by limedragon | Filed under bags or purses, secret pals or swaps

I got a plain brown box in the mail yesterday, and I didn’t recognize the name on the return address… but as soon as I noticed it came from San Francisco, I thought, Atlantis? Could it be from my 1SSP?

SRP Penultimate Update

Posted by limedragon | Filed under books, knitting

I brought 2 books with me to Chicago for Stitches Midwest, and read only three chapters! And what’s funnier… I bought 3 more books while there. : ) Still, I was able to read several books during the past 2 weeks.
